This past Saturday I conquered my fear of Body Pump and now I'm in love. Seriously, I almost started crying in the 1st few minutes of class. There's something about working out with weights in a group setting and feeling part of something difficult to achieve that pushes me and lights a fire within. That part of me, the drive to meet a goal, to push further, the place where discipline and emotion reside, is where the emotion originated. The class was tough! For a few moments I wondered if I was going to get through it, but I kept the weight at a challenging level and kept going. What an empowered feeling when the class was completed!

I tried another Les Mills class today, Sh'Bam. I thought it was like zumba , but the instructor said no, it's very different. Anyway it was almost all dance moves and super high energy. A fun class? Yes, but did it ignite the passion within? No, not like Body Pump. I definitely think I'll do it again. In fact it would be fun to do Body Pump then Sh'bam. I'm excited to try other Les Mills classes now, especially RPM and Body Combat.
On the weight loss front I maintained my weight for this Monday's weigh in. I thought that would be the case, especially with less exercise and more eating. I'm back on track this week and hoping to break into the 150s for next weight in.
Tell me:
Do you go to Les Mills classes? If so, which one is your favorite?
